Resource Boost Juice
You wanted to know about the nutrition facts of the Resource Boost Juice which I’d referenced in a previous post. Well, I figured the best way to give you the information you’re looking for was to pull some nutrition details listed directly on the product panel:
Total Calories: 250
Total Fat: 0
Cholesterol: 0
Potassium: 20mg
Total Carbohydrates: 54g
Protein: 9g
Daily Value Vitamins/Nutrients in 1 Boost Juice Serving:
Vitamin A: 15% DV
Vitamin C: 60% DV
Iron: 15% DV
Vitamin E: 20% DV
Vitamin K: 15% DV
Thiamin: 25% DV
Riboflavin: 25% DV

Folic Acid: 15% DV
Vitamin B12: 25% DV

I know I’ve said it before about this juice, but this is not your ordinary juice. You won’t find even a fraction of the above vitamins/nutrients in your typical grocery store selection of juices. You’ll pay a little more too but if you’re like me – concerned about your young ones getting the most vitamins/nutrients in their daily diets, this juice is great!
Another Product Endorsement from Me – Boost Pudding
Another recent item I’ve added to the twins’ diet is Boost Pudding, and since there was some interest from some of you who emailed me about the Boost juice, thought you might also find their puddings worth a look too. I used to give the girls Jell-o brand puddings as a snack occasionally until I came across the Boost Pudding. Now, I’ve sworn off the Jell-o brand in lieu of the Boost brand. Here’s why:
The Boost Pudding offers better nutrition than your average pudding.
Plus, just check out the other vitamins/nutrients in just one 5 oz cup!

If you’re okay with a pricier pudding, I highly recommend the Boost Puddings. For a package of 48 pudding cups, you’re going to pay about $70.00 plus tax, shipping and handling. While I know that’s A LOT more than what you’d spend on the Jell-o brand or comparable brand of puddings in the grocery store, you can’t beat the nutritional value.

Happy shopping!
P.S. Our girls like Vanilla and Chocolate. Butterscotch is also available but we haven’t tried that flavor yet.
